What a fellowship,
what a joy divine,
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
What a blessedness,
what a peace is mine,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
Refrain
Leaning, leaning,
safe and secure from all alarms;
Leaning, leaning,
leaning on the everlasting arms.
O how sweet to walk
in this pilgrim way,
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
O how bright the path
grows from day to day,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
Refrain
What have I to dread,
what have I to fear,
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
I have blessed peace with my Lord so near,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
